ABSTRACT

Systems and methods for generation and use of intellectual-property (IP) landscaping platform architectures are disclosed. A landscaping component may be utilized to produce refined clusters of IP assets using user seeded searches in varying areas of interest, such as, for example, target technical fields, targeted publications, targeted products, and/or competitor entity portfolios. The landscaping component may be further utilized to produce an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of the clusters of IP assets. The interactive graphical element may include various functionalities and/or information associated with the clusters of IP assets. An exposure assessment component may be utilized to assess the level of exposure associated with a targeted entity by analyzing a mapping between IP assets and allocated funds of the targeted entity, generate a score representing the level of exposure, make determinations as to insurance offerings and/or alter rates associated with the insurance offerings.

BACKGROUND

Analyzing an intellectual-property portfolio of a particular entity with respect to one or more entities having a similar intellectual-property portfolio may provide various insights and can be valuable. However, determining that separate entities have similar intellectual-property portfolios, particularly with entities having large portfolios, is difficult. Disclosed herein are improvements in technology and solutions to technical problems that can be used to, among other things, analyze and generate visual representations of intellectual-property portfolios of various entities.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Systems and methods for generation and use of an intellectual-property landscaping platform are disclosed. Take, for example, an entity that would find it beneficial to utilize a platform to analyze a corpus of intellectual-property (IP) assets in an efficient manner by targeting technical fields, subject matters, and/or competitor entities and to determine an overall saturation and/or identify gaps in coverage associated with the IP assets included in the targeted technical fields, subject matters, and/or competitor entities portfolios. For example, an entity may desire to know how densely populated the IP assets associated with a technical field are for patentability determinations, for infringement determinations, for asset acquisition purposes, for research and development purposes, for insurance purposes, etc. Generally, a user may search a database of such documents using keyword searching, such as, for example, a technical term, a target product, or an identifier of a target entity. To gather a reasonable number of results that does not unduly limit the documents in those results, users may employ broad keyword searching and then review each document to determine whether each document should be considered in class or out of class for the purposes at hand. However, taking patents and patent applications as an example, the potential corpus of documents, even if looking just to patents and patent applications filed in the United States, easily numbers in the thousands if not tens of thousands or more. Additionally, grouping the patents into groupings based on one or more shared technical fields, subject matters, and/or by similar entities may become cumbersome, especially when dealing with a large corpus. In light of this, an IP landscaping platform that is configured to identify IP assets that may be determined to be similar to the IP portfolio of one or more target entities, one or more target publications, and/or one or more target products and/or services and generate multiple result sets of varying levels of granularity and having the intellectual-property assets clustered based on the technical aspects of the IP assets would be beneficial. Additionally, an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of the clusters of the IP assets may be desirable to accurately and efficiently visualize a landscape of the clusters of IP assets.

Described herein is an IP landscaping platform that is configured to produce refined clusters of IP assets using user seeded searches in varying areas of interest, such as, for example, target technical fields, targeted publications, targeted products, and/or competitor entity portfolios. The platform may include a landscaping component, an exposure assessment component, and a data store. In some examples, the landscaping component may include various sub-components, such as, a seeding component, a user interface generation component, and/or a clustering component. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may include various sub-components, such as, a similarity component, a vector component, and/or a ranking component. Generally, the landscaping component may utilize any number of its components to seed user driven IP searches, identify entities having similar IP portfolios, cluster IP assets with varying levels of granularity, and generate a spatial representation of the clusters of IP assets. The exposure assessment component may be utilized to assess the level of exposure associated with a targeted entity by analyzing a mapping between IP assets and allocated funds of the targeted entity, generate a score representing the level of exposure, make determinations as to insurance offerings and/or alter rates associated with the insurance offerings. The datastore may be a secure datastore accessible by the system and utilized to securely store user account data including a project library, an IP asset library including one or more IP assets, and/or historical data. The IP landscaping platform may be accessible to users via one or more user interfaces that may be configured to display information associated with project(s) associated with a user account of the user and/or one or more user account(s) associated with user account. Additionally, or alternatively, the user interface(s) may be configured to receive user input.

The IP landscaping platform may be configured to display a user interface for presenting information associated with the project(s) associated with the user account. For example, the user interface may include selectable portions that when selected, may present information associated with the landscaping component and or information associated with the exposure assessment component. Additionally, or alternatively, the IP landscaping platform may be configured to cause the user interface to present information associated with the landscaping component and/or information associated with the exposure assessment component using different views. Additionally, or alternatively, the user interface(s) may include one or more information windows for presenting information associated with the project(s) associated with the user account.

When a user accesses the IP landscaping platform using a user account, the user interface may be caused to display one or more pages that present portions of the information associated with the landscaping component and/or exposure assessment component using information windows that are relevant to that page. Pages that may be accessed by a user account may include for example, a projects listing page, a selected project page, a selected search page, a similar publication page, a similar entity page, a clustering results page, and/or a cluster board page.

When a user account accesses the cluster board page, the user interface may be caused to display information presenting data associated with clusters included in a selected result set on the clustering results page. For example, the user interface may be caused to display an interactive graphical element and/or one or more information overlay windows.

In some examples, the interactive graphical element may include a spatial representation of the clusters. In some examples, the spatial representation may include a background represented by white space, graphical indicators associated with respective IP assets included in the clusters, keyword sets associated with respective clusters included in the result set, a slider filter control, and/or an animation sequence element. In some examples, the graphical indicators may be represented as dots having a size corresponding to the relevance of the associated IP asset with respect to the other IP assets included in the cluster. Additionally, or alternatively, the graphical indicators may be represented as dots having a size corresponding to a breadth score, indicating a claim strength and/or breadth of the claims included in the associated IP asset with respect to the other IP assets included in the cluster. Additionally, or alternatively, the graphical indicators may be color coded, such that IP assets that are included in a cluster of the selected result set may be represented by a graphical indicator having a color associated with the cluster. In some examples, graphical indicators belonging to separate clusters in a result set may have different colors that correspond to the respective cluster to which they belong. In some examples, the keyword sets may include one or more keywords associated with a respective cluster and may be presented at a central location of the cluster. Additionally, or alternatively, the keyword set may be represented in a color corresponding to the associated cluster. Additionally, or alternatively, the interactive graphical element may be configured to be manipulated by various user inputs, such as, for example, a zoom action configured to enlarge or shrink the view of the interactive graphical element to a desired location of the spatial representation and/or a click and drag action configured to focus the view of the interactive graphical element to a desired location of the spatial representation. In some examples, the slider filter control may be configured to receive user input representing a lower bound and/or an upper bound associated with a priority date and/or proprietary score associated with the IP assets included in the clusters of the selected result set. In some examples, the animation sequence element may be configured such that, when selected, the interactive graphical element may be caused to display an animated view of the spatial representation of the clusters. For example, the animated view may be configured as a time lapse animation, such that, the graphical elements included in the spatial representation may appear and/or disappear according to the range specified by the lower bound and the upper bound of the slider filter control.

In some examples, the one or more information overlay windows may include a filter overlay window, an IP asset overlay window, a cluster overlay window, and/or a quick information window. In some examples, the filter overlay window may include a search element configured to allow a user to search for an IP asset and/or a cluster, an indication of a number of IP assets included in the clusters, an indication of the IP assets visible on the current view of the spatial representation (e.g., the graphical elements in view), an indication of a number of IP assets that are included in the clusters but not presented on the interactive graphical element, a project selection control, a score filter slider, a cluster filter element, and/or a cluster color selector. In some examples, the project selection control may be configured such that, when selected, a user may select a project to visualize on the interactive graphical element representing the IP asset landscape. In some examples, the score filter slider may include a lower bound control and/or an upper bound control associated with a proprietary score associated with the IP assets included in the clusters of the selected result set. In some examples, the cluster filter element may be configured such that, when a cluster is selected, the selected cluster may be configured to appear and/or disappear from the spatial representation. In some examples, the cluster color selector may be configured to allow a user to change the colors associated with respective clusters of the selected result set. In some examples, the IP asset overlay window may be displayed in response to user input representing a selection of a graphical element in the spatial representation. The IP asset overlay window may include information associated with a selected IP asset and/or a proprietary score associated with a selected IP asset and generated by the IP landscaping platform. In some examples, the cluster overlay window may include information associated with the cluster, such as, for example, an indication of the color associated with the cluster, an indication of the keyword set associated with the cluster, a number of patents associated with the cluster, and an average of the proprietary scores associated with the IP assets included in the cluster and generated by the IP landscaping platform. In some examples, the quick information overlay window may be displayed in response to a user hovering over a graphical element in the spatial representation. The quick information window may include at least a portion of the information included in the IP asset overlay window.

As mentioned above, the IP landscaping platform may include a datastore. In some examples, the datastore may include data corresponding to user accounts, projects, IP assets, historical data, saved results from previous interactions the user account has made with the IP landscaping platform, and/or market data. The project(s) may include, for example, seeded search queries, similarity results, clustering results, and/or spatial representations of clusters. The project(s) may be stored with respect to the user account(s). Additionally, or alternatively, the saved result(s) may include, for example, seeded search queries, similarity results, clustering results, and/or spatial representations of clusters. The IP asset(s) may be stored with respect to an IP asset library. In some examples, the IP asset library may include data associated with IP assets and/or related to a corresponding IP asset, such as, for example, licensing data, and/or standard essential patent data. The historical data may be stored with respect to the user account(s) and/or independently in the data store(s). In some examples, the historical data may include historical data associated with an entity, a publication, an IP asset, and/or a user account. For example, the historical data may include data specific to mergers and acquisitions associated with a particular entity and/or IP asset. The market data may include market data associated with an entity, an IP asset, a technological area, a product and/or service, and/or standardized market data, and/or any other non-IP related data of the like.

As mentioned above, the IP landscaping platform may include a landscaping component utilized to generate seeded search queries using user targeted data, identify IP assets and/or entities determined to be similar to the targeted data, generate clusters of IP assets, and/or generate an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of selected clusters. In some examples, the landscaping component may include one or more sub-components. For example, the landscaping component may include a seeding component, a user interface generation component, and/or a clustering component. In some examples, the landscaping component may utilize the one or more sub-components to make determinations and/or generate data to be displayed on the user interface.

In some examples, the seeding component may include one or more sub-components. For example, the seeding component may include a similarity component, a vector component, and/or a ranking component. The seeding component may utilize the one or more sub-components to make determinations and/or to generate data to be displayed on the user interface. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may be configured to generate seeded search queries using user specified targeted data. For example, a user may specify one or more target entities, one or more target publications, and/or one or more target products that the seeding component may utilize to generate a seeded search. In some examples, the seeding component may be configured to identify one or more target entities utilizing data representing one or more target publications and/or one or more target products. The results of the seeded search may include a listing of entities having IP assets (e.g., an IP asset portfolio) that the similarity component has determined to include similarities to the targeted data.

In some examples, the similarity component may be configured to identify similarities between separate data. For example, given a target entity and/or target entities having IP assets (e.g., an IP asset portfolio), the similarity component may be configured to identify one or more additional entities having IP assets (e.g., an IP asset portfolio) that are similar to the IP assets of the target entity. In some examples, the similarity component may be configured to identify an entity having an IP asset portfolio that is similar to an additional IP asset portfolio of an additional entity. In some examples, the similarity component may compare words included in a text portion of IP assets to determine if two separate IP assets are similar to one another. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component and/or similarity component may utilize any other word matching and/or document comparison techniques to determine if two separate IP assets are similar. Additionally, or alternatively, the similarity component may utilize the vector representations of publications and/or entities to determine if two separate IP assets and/or entities are similar to one another.

In some examples, the vector component may be configured to generate vector representations of publications and/or entities. For example, the vector component may be configured to generate a vector representation of a publication and use the vector representation to identify IP assets having similar vector representations. Techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include vectorization techniques such as Doc2Vec, or other similar techniques. Additionally, or alternatively, techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include a method that takes a document, such as an IP asset, and turns it into a vector form as a list of floating-point numbers based at least in part on the document's text contents. This vector form may be called an embedding. This embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. Additionally, or alternatively, the vector component may be configured to utilize the vector representations of the IP assets that are associated with an entity, such as, for example, a target entity and/or one or more additional entities, to generate a vector representation of an entity. Techniques to generate vectors representing entities may include various vectorization techniques utilized to generate the vectors representing IP assets, and may aggregate the data to generate a vector representing the entity associated with the IP assets.

In some examples, the ranking component may be configured to rank the results of the seeded search that may include a listing of entities having IP assets that the similarity component has determined to include similarities to the targeted data. For example, the ranking component may compare the vector representations generated by the vector component to determine which entities are most similar to a target entity and rank the entities accordingly.

The user interface generation component may be configured to generate user interface element(s) and/or user interface pages described above using data received from other components utilized by the system. In some examples, the user interface generation component may be communicatively coupled to the other components stored thereon the computer-readable media. In some examples, the user interface generation component may generate user interfaces configured to present information associated with user projects associated with a user account. Additionally, or alternatively, the user interface generation component may generate user interfaces including confidential information and may be configured to be accessible by only users with predetermined qualifications. For example, the user interface generation component may cause only a portion of information to be displayed based on the type of account that is accessing the system. For example, when a user accesses the system, the system may determine that the account type of the account that the user has utilized to access the system may be one of, for example, a client user account and/or an administrative user account. In some examples, the user interface generation component may generate interactive graphical elements and/or dynamic animation sequences associated with the interactive graphical elements.

The clustering component may be configured to generate result sets including one or more clusters of IP assets. In some examples, the clustering component may generate multiple result sets including any number of clusters from 1-N, where N is any integer larger than 1. In some examples, the result sets may be associated with varying levels of granularity. For example, a result set having 2 clusters may be less granular than a result set having 20 clusters. In some examples, the result sets may be generated using a vector form described above, such as, for example, the embedding. As mentioned above, the embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. The embeddings may also be utilized to create thematic groups of documents. The thematic groups may be determined utilizing a set of keywords determined following analysis of a text portion of the IP assets, and the result may be a visual display of document groups (e.g., the clusters) that share similar themes. There may be a degree of supervision in the clustering process that may allow for some human control over which documents are grouped in which clusters. Each result set may include an indication of the number of clusters included in the result set. In some examples, each of clusters may include an indication of the number of IP assets included in the respective cluster and/or the keywords associated with the respective cluster. The clusters need not include all of the IP assets associated with the one or more selected entities, as some of the IP assets may be determined to be outliers and/or not associated with a cluster and/or result set.

In some examples, as mentioned above, the result sets generated by the clustering component may be associated with varying levels of granularity. In some examples, the varying levels of granularity may be achieved by utilizing various cluster specific techniques to assign IP assets into clusters, as described with more detail below. In some examples, hard clustering assignments may be made on IP assets where the cluster assignment by the system is uncertain. Additionally, or alternatively, IP assets that have an uncertain cluster assignment may be grouped with other IP assets that have an uncertain cluster assignment. Additionally, or alternatively, for each IP asset, its probability of belonging to every cluster may be calculated. In some examples, a vector may be generated representing the probabilities of its membership to every cluster. In some examples, this process may be repeated until the IP asset reaches a threshold probability of belonging to at least one of the clusters. Additionally, or alternatively, the IP asset may be assigned to a cluster in which the IP asset has the highest probability of belonging to. Additionally, or alternatively, an IP asset not belonging to a cluster may include very low probabilities of belonging to each of the clusters, and may be identified as a singleton IP asset, and/or may be identified as a novel IP asset among the IP assets included in the clusters. Additionally, or alternatively, user input may be provided to guide the assignment of an IP asset into a cluster grouping. In some examples, one or more models that are associated with the result sets may be saved in association with a user account such that the saved models may be applied later to new IP assets considered for cluster assignment.

Take for example, a user accessing the IP landscaping platform to interact with, conduct research, and/or create a new user project. The landscaping component may be configured to receive data representing a user project. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component may be configured to receive data representing a research query that is unassociated with a project. It should be appreciated that the operations described herein may be executed in association with and/or standalone from user projects. The user project may be created by and associated with a user account and/or one or more user accounts that are associated with the user account. The user projects may be stored in association with the user account data in the secure datastore. In some examples, the user projects may be utilized to organize and/or separate seeded searches, identified similar IP assets and/or entities, and/or generated clusters. In some examples, users may utilize the seeding component to generate seeded searches, generate one or more result sets including clusters of IP assets, and/or generate a spatial representation of one or more of the clusters.

In some examples, the seeding component may be configured to receive data representing a seeded search query and may perform a search operation in a number of ways. A seeded search query may include one or more instances of target data as described in more detail below. In some examples, the seeded search query may indicate an identification of one or more target entities. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeded search query may indicate an identification of one or more target publications, such as, for example, an IP asset. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeded search query may indicate an identification of one or more target products and/or services. In some examples, the IP landscaping platform may be configured to receive additional data associated with the seeded search query. For example, the seeding component may be configured to receive additional data via one or more actionable elements included on a graphical user interface (GUI) presented on a computing device and accessible to a user account. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may be configured to utilize the data representing a seeded search query to make various identifications and determinations associated with IP assets and/or entities, among other things.

In some examples, the seeded search query may indicate the identification of the one or more target entities, and the seeding component may utilize the data to identify IP assets that are associated with the target entity. In some examples, the seeding component may access one or more database(s) including a listing of all of the available IP assets associated with the target entity (e.g., an IP asset portfolio). Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may generate a result set including IP assets having an assignee associated with the entity.

Additionally, or alternatively, the seeded search query may indicate the identification of the one or more target publications, and the similarity component may utilize the data representing the seeded search query to identify IP assets (or IP asset portfolios) that are determined to be similar to the target publication. The similarity component may identify similar IP assets using various techniques. For example, the vector component may generate a vector representation of the target publication and use the vector representation to identify IP assets having similar vector representations. Techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include vectorization techniques such as Doc2Vec, or other similar techniques. Additionally, or alternatively, techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include a method that takes a document, such as an IP asset, and turns it into a vector form as a list of floating-point numbers based at least in part on the document's text contents. This vector form may be called an embedding. This embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. Each of the IP assets may be associated with an entity, and the seeding component may identify a target entity from one or more entities associated with the similar IP assets. In some examples, seeding component may identify a first entity of the one or more entities as a target entity based on the first entity having a number of IP assets that satisfy a threshold number. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may identify a first entity of the one or more entities as a target entity based on the first entity having a more favorable number of IP assets than the one or more additional entities. For example, if the first entity has the more IP assets than the additional entities, than the seeding component may determine that the first entity has a more favorable number of IP assets and select the first entity as the target entity.

Additionally, or alternatively, the seeded search query may indicate the identification of the one or more target products and/or services, and the similarity component may utilize the data representing the seeded search query to identify IP assets that are determined to be similar to the target product and/or service. The similarity component may identify similar IP assets using various techniques. For example, the similarity component may identify a technical feature associated with the target product and may identify IP assets that are associated with the product and/or service as the similar IP assets based on the technical feature. Each of the similar IP assets may be associated with an entity, and the similarity component may identify a target entity from one or more entities associated with the similar IP assets. In some examples, the seeding component may identify a first entity of the one or more entities as a target entity based on the first entity having a number of IP assets that satisfy a threshold number. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component may identify a first entity of the one or more entities as a target entity based on the first entity having a more favorable number of IP assets than the one or more additional entities. For example, if the first entity has the more IP assets than the additional entities, then the seeding component may determine that the first entity has a more favorable number of IP assets and select the first entity as the target entity.

Once the landscaping component identifies one or more target entities (also referred to as target entity), the landscaping component may identify, or gather, all of the IP assets associated with the target entity. Utilizing the target entity and the associated IP assets, the landscaping component and/or similarity component may be configured to identify additional entities having IP assets that are similar to the IP assets of the target entity. For example, the landscaping component and/or vector component may utilize the techniques described above to generate vectors representing the IP assets to determine if two separate IP assets are similar. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component and/or similarity component may utilize any other word matching and/or document comparison techniques to determine if two separate IP assets are similar. The landscaping component and/or similarity component may then identify one or more additional entities having IP assets that are determined to be similar to the IP assets of the target entity.

The landscaping component and/or vector component may then generate a vector representation of the target entity and/or the one or more additional entities. For example, the landscaping component may be configured to utilize the vector representations of the individual ones of the IP assets that are associated with an entity, such as, for example, the target entity and/or the one or more additional entities, to generate a vector representation of the an entity. Techniques to generate vectors representing entities may include various vectorization techniques utilized to generate the vectors representing IP assets, and may aggregate the data to generate a vector representing the entity associated with the IP assets.

Once the landscaping component has identified a target entity, one or more additional entities having IP assets determined to be similar to the IP assets of the target entity, and the vector representations of the target entity and/or the one or more additional entities, the landscaping component and/or the ranking component may determine a ranking of the one or more additional entities to generate the seeded search results. In some examples, the ranking may be configured to rank a first entity higher than a second entity of the one or more additional entities if the first entity is determined to have IP assets that are more similar to the IP assets of the target entity. Additionally, or alternatively, the ranking may be configured to rank a first entity higher than a second entity of the one or more additional entities if the first entity has a more favorable vector representation than the second entity. For example, a first vector representation of a first entity may be determined to be more favorable than a second vector representation of a second entity if the first vector representation is determined to be closer to the vector representation of the target entity than the second vector representation.

As mentioned above, the landscaping component and/or user interface generation component may generate one or more graphical user interface(s) (GUIs) for presenting information on computing device(s) accessible by user accounts. In some examples, the IP landscaping platform may generate a user interface for presenting the seeded search results. The GUIs may be configured to receive one or more inputs from the computing device. In some examples, the GUI may receive an input representing a selection of at least one entity of the one or more additional entities included in the seeded search results as one or more selected entities. In some examples, the landscaping component and/or user interface generation component may be configured to generate any of the user interfaces described above.

In some examples, the landscaping component and/or clustering component may utilize the seeded search results to generate one or more result sets including clusters of IP assets. For example, the landscaping component may generate data representing the one or more result sets based at least in part on the IP assets that are associated with the one or more selected entities. In some examples, the one or more result sets may include one or more clusters of the IP assets that are associated with the one or more selected entities. The result sets may include any number of clusters from 1-N, where N is any integer larger than 1. In some examples, the result sets may be associated with varying levels of granularity. For example, a result set having 2 clusters may be less granular than a result set having 20 clusters. In some examples, the result sets may be generated using a vector form described above, such as, for example, the embedding. As mentioned above, the embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. The embeddings may also be utilized to create thematic groups of documents. The thematic groups may be determined utilizing a set of keywords determined following analysis of a text portion of the IP assets, and the result may be a visual display of document groups (e.g., the clusters) that share similar themes. There may be a degree of supervision in the clustering process that may allow for some human control over which documents are grouped in which clusters. Each result set may include an indication of the number of clusters included in the result set. In some examples, each of clusters may include an indication of the number of IP assets included in the respective cluster and/or the keywords associated with the respective cluster. The clusters need not include all of the IP assets associated with the one or more selected entities, as some of the IP assets may be determined to be outliers and/or not associated with a cluster and/or result set.

Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component and/or user interface generation component may be configured to generate one or more GUIs for presenting the clustering results. In some examples, the GUIs may be configured to receive one or more user inputs associated with the clustering results. In some examples, a GUI may receive an input representing a selection of a result set of the one or more result sets and may present the clusters associated with the selected result set. Additionally, or alternatively, a GUI may receive an input representing a user specified name of a cluster. Additionally, or alternatively, a GUI may receive an input representing a request to generate an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of the one or more clusters for the selected result set.

In some examples, the landscaping component and/or user interface generation component may generate an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of one or more clusters included in a selected result set. For example, the landscaping component may generate the interactive graphical element to present on a GUI. In some examples, the landscaping component may include graphical indicators representing individual ones of the IP assets included in the one or more clusters of the selected result set. In some examples, the graphical indicators may be color coded, such that IP assets that are included in a first cluster of the result set may be represented by a graphical indicator having a first color, and IP assets that are included in a second cluster of the result set may be represented by a graphical indicator having a second color that is different from the first color. Additionally, or alternatively, the graphical indicators may be represented as dots of varying sizes representing an overall score and/or an overall relevance of the IP asset with respect to the other IP assets included in the result set. In some examples, the interactive graphical element may present the one or more keywords associated with a cluster on the spatial representation of the IP assets at a central portion of the associated cluster.

As mentioned above, the IP landscaping platform may include an exposure assessment component utilized to assess the level of exposure associated with a targeted entity, make determinations with respect to a targeted entities eligibility for insurance coverage, generate insurance quotes, and/or make changes to insurance premiums. In some examples, the exposure assessment component may be configured to determine a level of exposure, or risk, associated with individual clusters included in a result set. For example, the exposure assessment component may identify a product and/or service offered by an entity based on keywords associated with a particular cluster of IP assets associated with the entity, determine an amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service, and may determine a level of exposure associated with the particular cluster based on a number of IP assets included in the cluster and/or the amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service. For example, if an entity has a high amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service, and a low amount of IP assets included in a cluster having keywords that map to, or are associated with the product and/or service, the exposure assessment component may determine that the cluster has a high level of exposure. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component may be configured to determine a level of exposure, or risk, associated with an entity. For example, the exposure assessment component may identify the levels of exposure associated with the result sets and/or clusters associated with an entity, and may aggregate the data indicating the levels of exposure associated with the result sets and/or clusters to determine an overall level of exposure for an entity. In some examples, the exposure assessment component may be utilized in combination with any of the components described above. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component may make determinations and/or generate data to be displayed on the user interface.

In some examples, the exposure assessment component may be utilized to assess a target to determine a level of exposure associated with the target entity using at least some of the techniques described above. For example, the exposure assessment component may receive an input representing an identification of a target entity having IP assets. The exposure assessment component and/or landscaping component may then generate data representing one or more result sets of the IP assets. In some examples, the one or more result sets may include one or more clusters of the IP assets. In some examples, the one or more result sets may include clusters that correspond to product(s) and/or service(s) offered by the targeted entity, and thus the one or more result sets may have varying levels of granularity, as described above. For example, the result sets may be generated using a vector form described above, such as, for example, the embedding. As mentioned above, the embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. The embeddings may also be utilized to create thematic groups of documents. The thematic groups may be determined utilizing a set of keywords determined following analysis of a text portion of the IP assets, and the result may be a visual display of document groups (e.g., the clusters) that share similar themes. Each of the clusters may include at least a number of IP assets included in the cluster and/or the set of keywords associated with the cluster.

The exposure assessment component may then perform various operations on each of the clusters to assess the exposure of the targeted entity. For example, the exposure assessment component may be in communication with the landscaping component and may, for each cluster, identify a product or service offered by the first entity based upon the set of keywords that is associated with the corresponding cluster. The exposure assessment component may then, for each cluster, determine an amount of revenue that is associated with the identified product or service. For example, the exposure assessment component may determine an amount of funds that are allocated to the product or service and/or determine an amount of revenue that is generated by the product or service offered by the targeted entity. In some examples, the exposure assessment component may determine, for each cluster, a first level of exposure based upon the number of the IP assets that map to the product or service offered by the targeted entity and/or the amount of revenue that is associated with the product or service offered by the targeted entity. For example, a cluster that is associated with a product or service offered by an entity an entity that has a high amount of revenue associated with the product or service, but a low number of IP assets included in the cluster may have a high level of exposure, representing high risk for the cluster due to the high amount of revenue and low number of IP assets that map to the product or service.

The exposure assessment component may then determine a second level of exposure associated with the targeted entity. In some examples, the second level of exposure may be representative of an aggregated level of exposure based on the first level of exposure associated with each of the clusters included in the selected result set. That is, the second level of exposure may be an average of the first level of exposure that is associated with each of the clusters included in the selected result set. Additionally, or alternatively, the second level of exposure may be determined using any other algorithm configured to aggregate multiple scores determined on the same scoring scale. The exposure assessment component may be in communication with the user interface generation component to generate one or more GUI(s) to present the clusters on computing devices accessible by a user account, as described above. Additionally, or alternatively, the user interface generation component may generate an interactive graphical element, utilizing the techniques described above, to present a spatial representation of the clustered results on the one or more GUI(s).

FIG. 2 illustrates a component diagram of example components 100 of a remote computing resource 104 for the vendor management platform. The remote computing resource 104 may include one or more components such as, for example, one or more processor(s) 116, one or more network interfaces 118, and/or computer-readable media 120. The computer-readable media may include one or more components, such as, for example, a landscaping component 122, an exposure assessment component 124, and/or one or more data stores 126. Some or all of the components and functionalities may be configured to communicate with each other.

The data store(s) 126 may include data corresponding to user account(s) 202, project(s) 204, intellectual-property (IP) asset(s) 206(1)-(N), historical data 208, saved result(s) 224 from previous interactions the user account has made with the IP landscaping platform, and/or market data 226. The project(s) 204 may include, for example, seeded search queries, similarity results, clustering results, and/or spatial representations of clusters. The project(s) 204 may be stored with respect to the user account(s) 202. Additionally, or alternatively, the saved result(s) 224 may include, for example, seeded search queries, similarity results, clustering results, and/or spatial representations of clusters. The IP asset(s) 206(1)-(N) may be stored with respect to an IP asset library 210. In some examples, the IP asset library 210 may include data associated with IP assets and/or related to a corresponding IP asset, such as, for example, licensing data, and/or standard essential patent data. The historical data 208 may be stored with respect to the user account(s) 202 and/or independently in the data store(s) 126. In some examples, the historical data 208 may include historical data associated with an entity, a publication, an IP asset 206, and/or a user account 202. For example, the historical data 208 may include data specific to mergers and acquisitions associated with a particular entity and/or IP asset 206. The market data 226 may include market data associated with an entity, an IP asset 206, a technological area, a product and/or service, standardized market data, and/or any other non-IP related data of the like.

As mentioned with respect to FIG. 1, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to receive user input data as described herein for indicating target data representing at least one of an entity, publication, and/or product utilized to generate seeded search queries that utilize the target data to determine a representative entity and return results including one or more entities that have IP assets that are determined to be similar to the IP assets of the representative entity. The landscaping component 122 may also be configured to generate vector representations of the entities and/or IP assets such that the landscaping component 122 may rank the results from the search query by utilizing vector representations. The landscaping component 122 may also be configured to utilize the vector representations of the entities to generate result sets including clusters of selected entities associated with technical fields, products or technologies of interest, etc. The landscaping component 122 may also be configured to generate an interactive graphical element, that may be configured to respond to various user inputs representing manipulations to the interactive graphical element, for presenting a spatial representation of the one or more clusters included in a selected result set. The landscaping component 122 may include one or more components, such as, for example, a seeding component 212, a user interface generation component, 214, and/or a clustering component 216. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to perform the operations described below with respect to the one or more components.

The seeding component 212 may include one or more components, such as, for example, a similarity component 218, a vector component 220, and/or a ranking component 222. The seeding component 212 may be configured to generate seeded search queries using user specified targeted data. For example, a user may specify a target entity, a target publication and/or a target product that the seeding component 212 may utilize to generate a seeded search. In some examples, the seeding component 212 may be configured to identify a target entity utilizing data representing a target publication and/or a target product. The results of the seeded search may include a listing of entities having IP assets that the similarity component 218 has determined to include similarities to the targeted data. Additionally, or alternatively, the seeding component 212 may be configured to perform the operations described below with respect to the one or more components.

The similarity component 218 may be configured to identify similarities between separate data. For example, given a target entity and/or target entities having IP assets (e.g., an IP asset portfolio), the similarity component may be configured to identify one or more additional entities having IP assets (e.g., an IP asset portfolio) that are similar to the IP assets of the target entity. In some examples, the similarity component 218 may be configured to identify an entity having an IP asset portfolio that is similar to an additional IP asset portfolio of an additional entity. In some examples, the similarity component 218 may compare words included in a text portion of IP assets to determine if two separate IP assets are similar to one another. Additionally, or alternatively, the similarity component 218 may utilize any other word matching and/or document comparison techniques to determine if two separate IP assets are similar. Additionally, or alternatively, the similarity component 218 may utilize vector representations of publications and/or entities to determine if two separate IP assets and/or entities are similar to one another.

The vector component 220 may be configured to generate vector representations of publications and/or entities. For example, the vector component 220 may be configured to generate a vector representation of a publication that may be used to identify IP assets having similar vector representations. Techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include vectorization techniques such as Doc2Vec, or other similar techniques. Additionally, or alternatively, techniques to generate vectors representing IP assets may include a method that takes a document, such as an IP asset, and turns it into a vector form as a list of floating-point numbers based at least in part on the document's text contents. This vector form may be called an embedding. This embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. Additionally, or alternatively, the vector component 220 may be configured to utilize the vector representations of the IP assets that are associated with an entity, such as, for example, a target entity and/or one or more additional entities, to generate a vector representation of an entity. Techniques to generate vectors representing entities may include various vectorization techniques utilized to generate the vectors representing IP assets, and may aggregate the data to generate a vector representing the entity associated with the IP assets.

The ranking component 222 may be configured to rank results of a seeded search that may include a listing of entities having IP assets that the similarity component 218 has determined to include similarities to the targeted data. For example, the ranking component 222 may compare the vector representations generated by the vector component 220 to determine which entities are most similar to a target entity and rank the entities accordingly. Additionally, or alternatively, the ranking component 222 may be in communication with the user interface generation component 214 and may cause the GUI to display results of a seeded search in according to a ranked manner determined by the ranking component 222.

The user interface generation component 214 may be configured to generate user interface element(s), window(s), page(s), and/or view(s) described below with respect to FIGS. 3-11 using data received from other components utilized by the IP landscaping platform. In some examples, the user interface generation component 214 may be communicatively coupled to the other components stored thereon the computer-readable media 120. In some examples, the user interface generation component 214 may generate user interfaces configured to present information associated with user account data 202, project data 204, and/or saved results 224. Additionally, or alternatively, the user interface generation component 214 may generate user interfaces including confidential information and may be configured to be accessible by only users with predetermined qualifications. For example, the user interface generation component 214 may cause only a portion of information to be displayed based on the type of account that is accessing the platform. For example, when a user accesses the system, the user interface generation component 214 may determine that the account type of the account that the user has utilized to access the system may be one of, for example, an internal user and/or an external user, and may only include a portion of the information to be displayed that is associated with that account type. In some examples, the user interface generation component 214 may generate notifications to send to the user accounts.

The clustering component 216 may be configured to generate result sets including one or more clusters of IP assets. In some examples, the clustering component 216 may generate multiple result sets including any number of clusters from 1-N, where N is any integer larger than 1. In some examples, the result sets may be associated with varying levels of granularity. For example, a result set having 2 clusters may be less granular than a result set having 20 clusters. In some examples, the clustering component 216 may generate result sets using a vector form described above, such as, for example, the embedding. As mentioned above, the embedding may be used to calculate distance, and therefore similarity, between documents. The clustering component 216 may also utilize the embeddings to create thematic groups of documents. The thematic groups may be determined utilizing a set of keywords determined following analysis of a text portion of the IP assets, and the result may be a visual display of document groups (e.g., the clusters) that share similar themes. There may be a degree of supervision in the clustering process that may allow for some human control over which documents are grouped in which clusters. Each result set may include an indication of the number of clusters included in the result set. In some examples, each of clusters may include an indication of the number of IP assets included in the respective cluster and/or the keywords associated with the respective cluster. The clusters need not include all of the IP assets associated with the one or more selected entities, as some of the IP assets may be determined to be outliers and/or not associated with a cluster and/or result set.

In some examples, as mentioned above, the result sets generated by the clustering component 216 may be associated with varying levels of granularity. In some examples, the varying levels of granularity may be achieved by utilizing various cluster specific techniques to assign IP assets into clusters, as described with more detail below. In some examples, hard clustering assignments may be made on IP assets where the cluster assignment by the system is uncertain. Additionally, or alternatively, IP assets that have an uncertain cluster assignment may be grouped with other IP assets that have an uncertain cluster assignment. Additionally, or alternatively, for each IP asset, its probability of belonging to every cluster may be calculated. In some examples, a vector may be generated representing the probabilities of its membership to every cluster. In some examples, this process may be repeated until the IP asset reaches a threshold probability of belonging to at least one of the clusters. Additionally, or alternatively, the IP asset may be assigned to a cluster in which the IP asset has the highest probability of belonging to. Additionally, or alternatively, an IP asset not belonging to a cluster may include very low probabilities of belonging to each of the clusters, and may be identified as a singleton IP asset, and/or may be identified as a novel IP asset among the IP assets included in the clusters. Additionally, or alternatively, user input may be provided to guide the assignment of an IP asset into a cluster grouping. In some examples, one or more models that are associated with the result sets may be saved in association with a user account such that the saved models may be applied later to new IP assets considered for cluster assignment.

The landscaping component 122 may also be configured to receive input data representing user input indicating an identification of a target entity. In some examples, the landscaping component 122 may also be configured to identify one or more IP assets 206 that are associated with a target entity. For example, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to identify IP assets 206 in the IP asset library 210 that are associated with a target entity. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may also be configured to receive input data representing user input indicating an identification of a target publication, such as, for example, a target IP asset 206. In some examples, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to identify the target entity based on the target publication. In some examples, the landscaping component 122 and/or similarity component 218 may be configured to identify one or more entities having IP assets that are similar to a target publication as a target entity. For example, the landscaping component 122 may determine that the target entity has a number of IP assets that satisfy a threshold number of IP assets. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 and/or similarity component 218 may be configured to identify one or more entities having a set of IP assets that are similar to a set of IP assets associated with one or more additional entities, as a target entity. For example, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to compare a first IP asset portfolio of a first entity with a second IP asset portfolio of a second entity, and/or additional IP asset portfolios of additional entities. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to determine that the target entity has a number of IP assets that is determined to be more favorable than a number of IP assets that are associated with additional entities. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may also be configured to receive input data representing user input indicating an identification of a target product and/or service. In some examples, the landscaping component 122 may be configured to identify a technical categorization of the target product and may identify one or more entities having IP assets that are associated with the technological categorization of the target product as a target entity. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may identify the target entity using any of the techniques described above.

The landscaping component 122 may also be configured to identify IP assets that are determined to be foreign IP assets and/or design IP assets and may remove the foreign and/or design IP assets from result sets that are generated by the clustering component 216. Additionally, or alternatively, the landscaping component 122 may also be configured to determine a score associated with a result set and/or cluster of IP assets. For example, the landscaping component 122 may generate a first score for a first result set of IP assets based on comparing the keywords associated with the first result set to keywords associated with additional result sets.

As mentioned above with respect to FIG. 1, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to assess a level of exposure associated with a targeted entity and/or one or more additional entities, make determinations with respect to the eligibility for insurance coverage associated with a targeted entity and/or one or more additional entities, generate insurance quotes, and/or make changes to insurance premiums. In some examples, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to determine a level of exposure, or risk, associated with individual clusters included in a result set. For example, the exposure assessment component 124 may utilize the market data 226 to identify a product and/or service offered by an entity based on keywords associated with a particular cluster of IP assets associated with the entity, determine an amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service, and may determine a level of exposure associated with the particular cluster based on a number of IP assets included in the cluster and/or the amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service. For example, if an entity has a high amount of revenue associated with the product and/or service, and a low amount of IP assets included in a cluster having keywords that map to, or are associated with the product and/or service, the exposure assessment component 124 may determine that the cluster has a high level of exposure. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to determine a level of exposure, or risk, associated with an entity. For example, the exposure assessment component 124 may identify the levels of exposure associated with the result sets and/or clusters associated with an entity, and may aggregate the data indicating the levels of exposure associated with the result sets and/or clusters to determine an overall level of exposure for an entity. In some examples, the exposure assessment component 124 may be utilized in combination with any of the components described above. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component 124 may make determinations and/or generate data to be displayed on the user interface.

The exposure assessment component 124 may also be configured to utilize the IP asset library 210, the historical data 208, and/or the market data 226 to determine if an IP asset is associated with a litigation dispute. For example, the exposure assessment component 124 may identify previous litigation disputes that involve the IP asset, directly and/or indirectly, such as, for example, a citation of the IP asset. In some examples, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to generate an exportable file that includes a list of particular IP assets that are associated with a particular litigation dispute. Additionally, or alternatively, the exportable file may include information associated with a litigation dispute for each respective IP asset included in the listing.

The exposure assessment component 124 may also be configured to determine an insurance grouping associated with an entity based on the level of exposure associated with the entity, and may cause a user interface to display an indication of the insurance grouping and a coverage amount associated with the insurance grouping. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to utilize the historical data 208 and/or market data 226 in the data store 126 and/or may identify historical data associated with an entity to identify trends associated with an entity and/or adjust exposure levels of an entity. For example, the exposure assessment component 124 may raise or lower the level of exposure associated with an entity based on the historical data 208 and/or the market data 226. In some examples, the exposure assessment component 124 may identify one or more trends associated with an entity. For example, a trend may indicate a change in an amount of revenue associated with a product and/or service offered by an entity over a period of time. Additionally, or alternatively, a trend may indicate a change in a number of IP assets that are associated with the product and/or service offered by an entity over a period of time. In some examples, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to utilize the trends to determine a change ratio indicating a change rate associated with one trend with respect to a change rate associated with another trend. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to determine the level of exposure associated with an entity based on the one or more trends and/or the change ratio.

The exposure assessment component 124 may also be configured to utilize the landscaping component 122, and/or the one or more components included therein, to generate a spatial representation of result sets and/or clusters associated with a particular entity to visualize the levels of exposure associated with the entity. For example, the exposure assessment component 124 may identify clusters associated with high and/or low levels of exposure, and provide graphical indications overlaid on the spatial representation of the clusters. Additionally, or alternatively, the exposure assessment component 124 may also be configured to utilize the market data 226 and/or the historical data 208 to identify a gap in coverage between clusters associated with an entity. In some examples, the gap in coverage may be associated with a technical area and/or the keywords. For example, the gap in coverage may be proximal to IP assets included in surrounding clusters, and the exposure assessment component 124 may be configured to generate the keywords based on words included in a text portion of the proximal IP assets included the surrounding clusters.
